5/28 Braves (Smoltz) vs. Crap (Ryu) 1:20 CT WGN

[Sammy Sofa]

Anytime Perez, Pierre & Womack drive in half of youre runs, and your best RBI man GIDPs twice...... yeah, that's asinine !!

 

Andruw Jones has struck out, what, 3 times? And the Braves have still hit 8 HR's? Dogs and cats, living together!

[Sammy Sofa]

And Shock Jones just took a walk?!? These are the end times...gather close, my brothers! We, the miserable loyal few, will be taken unto paradise! Edited May 28, 2006 by Sammy Sofa

Neifury is MAD!

Dear Neifi:

 

A bunt would surprise the opposition here.

 

Sincerely,

I'm probably not the 1st person to suggest this, but they should change the part of 7th inning stretch song that goes, "if they don't win, it's a shame..." to "it's the same". Edited May 28, 2006 by CDBears1259

CUBS are 6-7 when they take 4 or more BBs.

 

Go figure !!

[Derwood]

I was at a game vs. the Dodgers in which the Cubs gave up 7HR. Anthony Young was pitching if I remember correctly, and it was the LA team with Piazza, Mondesi, Karros, etc. Ugly.

Lack of posts in this thread = most NSBBers are bandWGNers and not true fans.

A bunch of us have been out on the ledge.We came back to cheer Neifi!

Neifury is MAD!

 

If only he had adjusted his jacque just one more time, he might have sent the ball into the bleachers.

CUBS are 4-23 when they trail after 7 innings.

 

Go CUBS !!

[Sammy Sofa]

Prior's delay has been so long and mysterious because the Cubs are attempting to transplant his freakish calf muscles into his arms so he can pitch AND hit like a monster upon his return.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Langerhans struck out swinging

[Sammy Sofa]

This is what madness feels like.
